In 2014, then-Montrealer Rima Athar discovered Thea’s Tarot and loved it. She requested that her friend Oliver Pickle write a book about it. Metonymy Press published She Is Sitting in the Night in 2015, and since then, we have been periodically distributing Ruth’s original printing Thea’s Tarot decks alongside it.

Metonymy Press has been granted permission by Ruth to reprint a limited edition of Thea’s Tarot.

The new edition is very much like the original, and comes with the same instructional pamphlet, now reformatted to fit on extra cards. The 78-card deck has Ruth’s signature design on the back of each card, and the images are black and white reproductions of Ruth’s original papercut prints.

The cards can be purchased on their own or together with She Is Sitting in the Night.

For orders outside of the US and Canada, contact Little Red Tarot (UK), Salon des Arcanes (FR), and IndieTarot (NL).

Alongside Oliver Pickle's acclaimed contemporary interpretation of Ruth West's lesbian-feminist tarot cards, we now carry a new printing of Thea’s Tarot (originally released in 1984 by the artist). Order them alongside the book or on their own.
